Hello. I'm working on some facades. I don't exactly need instructions on making this in Revit but I'm more interested in figuring out how it's actually made and then I can figure out how to do it in Revit. I've attached some pictures of the ideas I want to use.

Any other suggestions for some similar nicely looking facades are welcome.

Thanks!

I always think the ways Revit work (most of the time) is the way of how we put the building together.

so it depends on how the facade design is, then you would use the right set of elements to create the facade.

Lots of time I heard people misuse the tool (like using roof as a floor, or use curtain wall as a railing), would not good when the project is a team effort other than by yourself. There is always an exception to any unique situation, so any trick/workaround need to be implemented (in-place family).

To answer your question, it seems like typical (basic/composite) wall, curtain walls,  door and windows should do just fine.
